While rebutting another post here on Lemmy, I ran into this. This says exactly what I want to say.

I am not a friend of Biden’s Administration. I think they drug their feet over a variety of things ranging from holding Trump and his goons accountable for January 6th through rulemaking on issues like OTC Birth Control and abortion rights, and yes, I think he’s too quick to please big business. But then I remember what the alternative is, and … well, disappointed in Biden or not, I’m voting for him. Because my wife is a Black bisexual goth woman, four strikes under Team Pepe’s tent. And I have my own strikes for marrying her as a White dude, and respecting her right to not have kids since she doesn’t want them is another strike against me. And I care about my Non-Christian, Gay, Transgender, and Minority friends, and will never willingly subject them to Team Pepe.

    Supporting the literal policies of nazis and copying their rhetorics and power structures and beliefs.

    The republicans are knowingly and wilfully hosting and supporting actual neonazis who do all this and admit to be neonazis, and then the republicans yell free speech and cancel culture if you call them out for it

      Meanwhile Democrat candidates like Biden (and Clinton) have been openly and publicly endorsed by multiple Neo-Nazi and White Nationalist groups.

      You’re a completely moronic simpleton if you believe “my side good, your side bad” when it comes to the two major US political parties, they are both disgustingly awful.

        Show me the numbers. Because the Republican party is the only one who takes them in and has significantly greater support from those types.

        “both sides” logic doesn’t make sense when one side is just classical politicians and the other are literal fascist insurrectionists. Yes politicians of all kinds sucks and I don’t even like the democrats. But if you can’t see the other side are monsters and 1000x worse then you’re completely blind.

          Gee, one side does a genocide, the other side embraces neonazis. Almost like they’re not so different.
